Abstract

A pivot arm (1) outside the turret hatch (3) is pivotably fitted around a static, vertical axis (5) and on the weapon (9, 9') or on a retainer fitted on it around a movable vertical axis (25). The pivot arm preferably includes two parts (13,15), which are connected with one another by a link (17).A release lever (19) is provided for the link (17), which can be held in a rest position by a spring or similar. It is movable into a release position by a handle (21) fitted to it. By application of only one link the release lever is formed as a pivot lever, which with its one end is pivotably fitted on the part (13) of the pivot arm (11) which is located on the static axis (5).
